On the morphodynamic evolution of tidal environments
2006Tidal environments are dynamic and delicate systems exposed to the effects of climate changes and often subject to increasing human pressure. In order to address issues of conservation of such environments, we have addressed a comprehensive theoretical framework suitable for large-scale, long-term modelling of their eco-morphodynamic evolution.

Evolution and Morphodynamics of Danube Delta Shoreface
2016The present Danube Delta shoreface morphology (in terms of longshore variability of cross-shore profile shape and slope) and behaviour (sediment distribution and transport, depth changes) reside from the co-existence of different types of accretionary, stable and erosive sectors. This configuration is the result of various controlling factors: the long-

Factors controlling blowout morphodynamics and evolution in southern Portugal
2023Wind-induced airflow acceleration over irregular foredunes promotes the genesis of sandy depressions named blowouts. During their development, they transfer sediment to the back-dune helping to maintain the available barrier sediment budget while promoting eco-geomorphological feedbacks that regulate the plant community and biodiversity.

Morphodynamic evolution of a newly formed tidal inlet
1993A unique opportunity to document and understand the processes of tidal inlet evolution and morphodynamic interactions presented itself with the breach of Nauset Spit across from the town of Chatham, Massachusetts. In the first twenty-eight months since its formation, the morphological evolution of the new inlet can be characterized into four categories:

On the genesis and evolution of barchan dunes: morphodynamics
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017Barchan dunes are crescent-shaped formations of sand that can dominate both desert and subaqueous landscapes when the supply of sand is scarce. Because of the complexity and scale of the underlying phenomena, the mechanisms governing the entire process from the genesis to the long-term evolution of barchan fields still remain to be better understood ...

Seilacher, Konstruktions‐Morphologie, Morphodynamics, and the Evolution of form
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, 2017ABSTRACTAdolf Seilacher (1925–2014) was a German paleontologist who made the concept of Konstruktions‐Morphologie (constructional morphology) his own, recognizing that organism morphology is not simply an adaptive response to selection pressure but incorporates phylogenetic and structural influences as well.
